The Just Us Dept. can’t be bothered to enforce (or follow) Constitutional matters, but can Facebutt terms of service?

In a way, if a person is wasting time with another based on false information, I guess you could consider that fraud....though more civil than criminal.
However, me thinks the DOJ has more important things to tend to at the moment.

Match.com used pictures of models and false profiles to sucker gullible men to sign up to try and date them. I found the same picture and slightly altered profile in Burnsville, Ms, Vernon, Alabama, Alton, Oklahoma, and in Orange County, California. When confronted all four profiles disappeared from Match.com. I saved her picture from the site. This was about four years ago and I haven't given Match.com a look since.

“However, me thinks the DOJ has more important things to tend to at the moment.”
This is their entry into regulating content on the internet.
Think of all the, “lies” here on FR which will need their attention. Slippery slope ahead!

So, the people who think it is NO bodies business what their posting history is, and WANT to keep their personal stuff, personal, can’t have a “alias” name?
They want to be able to know who you are, what you think, and no place to hide, because you know, keeping the plebs in line is just so much more important than actually enforcing the laws already on the books.
Need to keep all these morons in line while we fleece them clean of everything they own.

Agreed, that’s why I was thinking civil vs criminal.

Does it mean I have to give my actual weight for my driver’s license? I didn’t do that at 16... I sure as heck am NOT doing it now!

Just posted this on another thread. It's amazing how many threads it could be posted on:
I think the feds want to get involved in literally everything just so the sheeple will continue to consider them relevant.

To: FourPeas
What makes this possible is a section of the CFAA that was never intended to be used that way: a general-purpose prohibition on any computer-based act that "exceeds authorized access." To the Justice Department, this means that a Web site's terms of service define what's "authorized" or not, and ignoring them can turn you into a felon.
So any liberal trolls on Free Republic can be imprisoned. Same thing for Romney trolls.
